Quoted:
ArcticWarrior - in your review, 7 of your 8 complaints are cosmetic. The one mechanical complaint is where the tail on the dust cover spring extends about .100" above the ejection port.
I'm not sure I would throw in the towel at that point.

Tony,
At that point, I had just paid half a months salary for a firearm. Yes, the majority of the problems were cosmetic. With that being said, if there were that many problems with it, then why would I trust it at the range? Why would I simply say, "It's OK" and roll over? I paid top dollar for a rifle, I wanted what I was promised. It's no different that you going to a dealership to buy a car, you pay for it, and it's delivered to you all F*%ked up. You would be PISSED! Then to add insult to injury, I called to try and get something done, I was shat upon, then once they had my rifle, ignored. I was overly nice as being a prick would have gotten me nowhere. THAT is my problem. Anyone who would screw a customer like that has serious issues. That's all I'm saying. If your stuff works for you, I am genuinely 100% happy for you. Perhaps, my being vocal has made him think about treating his customers a little bit better. That would be the ideal situation. I'm not holding my breath though.
